[EL] Fwd: MAINE GOP UNCOVERS 19 ELECTION DAY REGISTRATIONS FROM ONE MAINE HOTEL

Fri Sep 9 11:47:21 PDT 2011

This looks like voter fraud that would have been  prevented by requiring a 
voter ID.  It is doubtful that the people who  voted for the people 
registered at this hotel would have had an ID that would  match the hotel address 
and the voter's name.  Jim Bopp

MAINE GOP UNCOVERS 19 ELECTION DAY  REGISTRATIONS FROM ONE MAINE HOTEL 
AUGUSTA-An  examination of the statewide voter list by the Maine  
Republican Party has revealed 19 individuals who registered  to vote on Election Day, 
November 2, 2004, using the Holiday  Inn Express in South Portland as their 
residence.  According to the Maine GOP research, all 19  individuals 
registered and voted on Election Day that year  and have not voted since.        
South  Portland Holiday Inn Express 
"Mainers  should be very concerned that 19 individuals, who all listed  the 
same hotel address, were able to register to vote and  cast a ballot all on 
a busy Election Day.  Our  town clerks are already overworked on Election 
Day, how can  we expect them to verify that these people are legitimate  
Maine residents and haven't already voted elsewhere?" said  Charlie Webster, 
Chairman of the Maine Republican Party. 
Registration  cards for the 19 hotel guests were provided by the South  
Portland Town Clerk's office and can be seen _here_

Portland Holiday Inn  Express, for the section titled "Street or Location 
Address  (Where you live)."  Six of the voting hotel guests  also provide the 
hotel room number on the cards.  
According to  many of the handwritten cards, hotel guest-voters were  
previously registered in states including California,  Massachusetts, New Jersey, 
Maryland, Oklahoma, Texas,  Florida, Illinois and Tennessee.  According to 
the  Maine Republican Party voter database, these individuals  only voted in 
the highly contested 2004 general  election.  As of the end of August, all 
19  individuals were still listed as active voters in the Maine  Secretary 
of State voter database. 
"Our town  clerks need the time and tools to make sure our elections  
results are honest and every voter is an actual Maine  resident.  With individual 
hotel-guests voting in  elections, it is clear why 42 other states have an  
inspection period for voter registration and do not allow  same day voter 
registration. 
"We need to  ask ourselves if someone is qualified to be a Maine voter  
just because they can say, 'I stayed at a Holiday Inn  Express last night?'" 
Webster said.
